    The problem is extreme wear on the exhaust valves, as shown in the video. The amount of oil seems proper, but it enters the head nearest the intake valve. The exhust valves get less as its farther down the stream. Its the same on 6 cylinders.

    Not correct Tex. On the previous 3300 heads the first oil feed slot is closer to the exhaust valve in two of the six cylinders, equal in two cylinders and closer to the intake valve in the other two.

    fix Jim, I have 9mm hose which is about is about 3/8" . ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim Crowder To: jabiruengine-list@matronics.com Sent: Monday, March 12, 2012 1:24 PM Subject: RE: JabiruEngine-List: Fw: Jabiru rocker oil pressure fix Tex, There has been a lot of discussion on the thread. It provides an increase in oil flow and pressure according to those who have done it.

The intake valve gets plenty. I will check the hose size. Was this a mod. I missed?

    Subject: worn valve guides
    Pete, I have received your coment on how I was wrong on the layout of the 3300 valves, but I was hoping for some insite to my problem rather than the way I discribed it. This problem has now surfaced in Europe and I was hoping for help for it will be showing up here soon. The valve guides on the exhaust are wearing out in less the 100 hours. Will there be anyone from Jabiru Au at Sun & Fun that I can talk to? Tex
